I am delighted to give the final annual donation by Epiphany Accounting Solutions Ltd to Sea Shepard NZ.

They work tirelessly out in the waters all around the world defending all forms of marine life from destructive commercial practices. If they don't do this then who will? It takes an organisation with a lot of might and resources to be where the problems are, take a stand, and emerge victorious.

In New Zealand, Sea Shepard has started their first dolphin protection programme for the endangered NZ Hector Dolphins. Anyone who has ever been close to a dolphin knows that they are pure JOY.

Here is something of what they have to say;
"Operation Pahu will see Sea Shepherd New Zealand use their vessel the 'Loki' to patrol the south-eastern coast of New Zealand's South Island to assist in the protection of hector's dolphins from IUU fishing. "

"How IUU Fishing Affects Hector's Dolphins
The greatest threat to hector's dolphins comes from fishing practices that utilise gill nets or trawling for their catch. In 2016, a leaked Government report, 'Operation Achilles', revealed that vessels operating within the inshore fisheries region were dumping 20 to 100 percent of their catch during every haul, highlighting the indiscriminate nature of current fishing practices in New Zealand. Along with this, it was shown that dolphins were regularly being caught and killed, without being reported.

With such low population numbers, this type of reckless fishing is disastrous for the endemic New Zealand hector's dolphins."

I am sure they would love to receive a wee donation from you, if that feels right.https://www.seashepherd.org.nz/our-campaigns/operation-pahu/learn-more/

Celebrating my Success – Giving - The 2nd Winner is…
I know this is going to become the highlight of my year - celebrating the successful completion of an annual cycle of business and what fun to choose the 3 charities.

The second charity to receive 1% of sales from Epiphany Accounting Solutions Ltd donation is…………..

The World Wild Life Fund - NZ - We desperately need and depend on organisations like this to protect our living planet and bring about change.

Their Mission Statement “We work to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment, by conserving the world’s biodiversity, ensuring the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.”

This mighty charity needs all the resources it can get to support all the incredible people on the ground doing the work. They are out there fighting for change, standing up to injustice. They challenge the devastation that self-interested, self-focused large corporations inflict on the environment and wildlife all around the world.

They need huge resources to have a huge booming voice that can get heard above the roaring noise of corporation’s cha-ching of multi-million dollar cash registers.

The World Wild Life Fund is out there in the middle of the Amazon, in the pits and mines, in the waterways, the oceans, in the deserts of nature, and in the halls of governments opposing destructive actions.

They are the mighty warriors who use action prevent, and the power of words negotiating alternatives, raising awareness to protect what is left of our natural world. They help to change the hearts and minds of people all over the world as they seek to protect through education about the world's wildlife.

This agency needs all the resources they can get as the rapid pace of destruction marches on.

I am delighted and proud to give my second 1% of sales to The World Wild Life Fund.

Protecting our native species

Xero Health Check – Accuracy Review $600 plus GST

Worried about your Xero Accounts? Is everything being done as it should be? Just don’t know, and no way of finding out? Do you have concerns about being audited by IRD? Has this become a nagging worry at the back of your mind? How well would you pass an IRD audit?

Your Accounts are the core of your business. It is vital that they are correct to monitor your business successfully. I can’t overstate the importance and legal responsibility you have as a business owner to keep good accounting records. Yet all too often this is forgotten or overlooked with the complex demands of running a business and the accompanying stresses.

As a management accountant with many years of experience I bring the combined expertise and knowledge of accounting, along with an understanding of the practicalities of running a business to support my clients.

I will run an expert eye over the transactions in your Xero. Check for correct accounting treatment and GST application. Advise you on any errors and mistakes I find and how to correct them. I will let you know how they impact your GST returns. (A surprizing number of my clients have recovered $000”s in GST claims as a result – but each client is different).

I am sure that you will find as my clients already do, that this will bring you confidence and peace of mind that your accounts are either in great shape or you know what changes to make to bring them into alignment.

Xero Health Check is $600 +GST and includes a report of errors found, how to you can correct these yourself, plus suggestions on how to apply best practice bookkeeping to assist you with your IRD compliance and legal responsibilities as a business owner.

Note that this is a general Xero Review and is not intended to be or replace the need for an Internal Audit with a Qualified Auditor.

Epiphany Accounting Solutions has chosen to donate 3% of sales to charities that support people in need, wild life and the environment. As a client of EAS you are helping to support these causes.
